I'll leave this up as an archive, but in the meantime. . . head over to Tumblr, and follow me!

ps. I know that I'll be eventually porting all the content generated in Tumblr to another blog platform someday. . . and I'm kinda looking forward to it. I think being able to port ancient blog posts over, with augmented tags, is kinda neat!!

Man. . . I was just looking back at some of my backups from when I was a student at THE NEW YORK FILM ACADEMY a couple of years ago (2007, to be exact). . .

And here's an interesting story about a film that I want to redo/recut/recapture. . .

I had just watched the 'LYNCH' documentary at The IFC Center (formerly the Waverly, I guess), and was feeling pretty stoked on making movies. . . and as I stepped out the door on my way to the train, the ENTIRE script for Eugene and the Neighbor popped into my head, fully formed.

It was pretty exciting. . . I couldn't believe it. . . it just kinda HAPPENED. . . which was awesome. We shot it as a school project, had some problems with production, had MORE problems with post. .. and it was pretty much all my fault. . . I didn't really take it as seriously as I should have (ya know, being a student and all).

But the long and short of it is ideas can hit you ANYWHERE. . . and the 60 feet from the Theater to the train was just enough time for me to come up with a complete script, from start to finish.

There's a review of the new Lightworks over at Lifehacker, and it's pretty glowing. From the article:

If you're looking for capable video editing software on a budget (or not), Lightworks is definitely worth checking out (if you're a windows user, at least).

Also, on their website, they claim Stereoscopic support. . . I obviously haven't had a chance to try it, but here's what the site says:

STEREOSCOPIC EDITING
Lightworks introduced the stereo video track to automatically sync left and right eye media files seamlessly in the background. Edit with stereoscopic media in any supported format, without the need for new muxed files, and without the need to change your workflow.

Well, there you have it. According to Editshare's website, it's in public beta, and can be grabbed HERE(registration required).

Video Download Helper is one of those little secrets tool I keep in my SUPER-DUPER POST GUY UTILITY BELT. . . but now that the yahoos over at PVC have let the cat out of the bag, I guess I'll post about it. . .

IN A NUTSHELL: You can download 90% of the flash video content on the internet.

Get it NOW. It's the only reason I still have Firefox installed on my machine.

I recently bought a friend of mine & her husband a 16mm Camera as a wedding present (I suck for not having sent it to you guys yet!!), and I'll be curious to see how their footage comes out after they've done something like this to transfer it on the cheap.

Yeah. I wasn't able to do a Movie A Day for a year. It was tough. . . I ended being quite busy (which, in retrospect, was a good thing.)

So. . . here's a list of movies that I never added to the list. I think I can stop posting these now. . . but suffice to say that I watch A LOT of movies. . . and whenever I find one that's worth watching, I'll post the trailer. That seems like a fair trade.

Here's a list of things I've seen recently, with Wikipedia links (click titles for link)
